During combat in Shejaiya, the IDF mistakenly identified 3 […] hostages as a threat and as a result, fired toward them and the hostages were killed.

How the fuck can a soldier see three unarmed people and feel threatened?

    They didn’t feel threatened, they assume every living person is the enemy and simply fire as soon as they see movement (including, sometimes, on their own). See: this is how we fought in Gaza (CW: horror).
